BELDEN 8723, AUDIO, CONTROL & INSTRUMENT, #22-2PR
Belden 8723 is a versatile 2-pair, 22 AWG shielded cable designed for low-voltage signal transmission. It is widely used in audio, instrumentation, and control systems where protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) is required in a compact, space-saving design.
Product Description
8723 features two individually shielded pairs, which is a key advantage for projects requiring separate signal paths within a single cable jacket. Its stranded conductor construction provides necessary flexibility, while the shielding ensures data and analog signals remain clean and reliable.
Key Technical Specifications
Conductor Construction: 2 pairs of 22 AWG stranded (7x30) tinned copper conductors.
Shielding Architecture:
Individual Pair Shielding: Each pair is protected by a Beldfoil® (aluminum/polyester) shield to eliminate crosstalk between pairs.
Drain Wire: Includes a tinned copper drain wire for each pair to ensure simple, reliable grounding.
Outer Jacket: Durable, flame-retardant Chrome PVC jacket.
Electrical Characteristics:
Voltage Rating: 300 V RMS.
Capacitance: Optimized for low mutual capacitance to maintain signal fidelity over medium-length runs.
Operating Temperature: -20°C to +75°C.
Primary Applications
Professional Audio: Commonly used for balanced audio signals and microphone connections where individual pair isolation prevents noise leakage.
Industrial Control: Perfect for complex instrumentation loops, sensor arrays, and PLC signaling where multiple channels are routed together.
Building Automation: Used in access control systems, security sensors, and data signaling where a shielded, multi-pair configuration is needed.
